Again, it's particularly little, and it's not even in her district. Her constituents don't benefit from this at all.

NYC is anyways very dense. Amazon should probably set up their HQ in a less clustered city. Theres plenty of american cities that could require some healthly investment.

I'm sure the city coffers are very grateful that Ms. Cortez's antics cost them. I for one am quite glad, I would hate to see New York City do even better. I suppose I should thank the good representative for her fine work.

What alternate location would you suggest for the Amazon HQ?

How about something in the midwest perhaps? :^)

You read my mind :^)

Really I would prefer it if Mr. Bezos didn't ingratiate himself with various centers of power more than he already has. This is bad enough. Imagine if he got into bed with the banking types?

Besides New York's education department is declaring things like perfectionism and comfort to be white supremacy culture. Not to mention cancelling gift programs and other such nonsense in the name of equality.

I don't want my Amazon services to start suffering because they chose a city drinking a bit too much of the kool-aid. If you're Amazon, do you really want employees coming from a school system that thinks like that?

A fine Midwestern city with honest Protestant values of hard work and timeliness would be a far better option :^)

Really Ms. Cortez is my greatest ally.

I find it vastly amusing that the people who claim to be against gentrification like what happened in the Bay Area are for policies that support gentrification like that which happened in the Bay Area.

The $12 billion seems to be money owed to insurers, by the Federal government.
And the sense that it "sabotages" Obamacare comes into play if one or more insurers go broke.

The Incans and other South America Natives are the reason Europeans and North Americans have potatoes.

Before that'd they'd just eat the flowers and die horrible and painful deaths.

Europeans got potatoes from South America, but didn't know the root was the only edible part, so they're eat the very poisonous leaves and flowers and die in agony.

Oh. Your first post sounded like they had potatoes before they met the Inca et al. but didn't know not to eat the above-ground part.
